TERRIBLE HOTEL
Hotel was terrible! Oversold rooms, put us in a lessor room and was completely unapologetic about it. Had to sleep on a dirty couch. Staff was rude, rooms were dirty. Completely unsafe location. Wouldn’t stay here again if you paid me!

Good hotel , for the price .
Good location. Rooms were good . Staff was super friendly and helpful, wonderful people all around . A few food places to eat close by in daytime , but area becomes downright dangerous after dark. Do your walking and exploring in daytime .

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The area feels unsafe. Door was locked when we arrived to check in, staff were slow to arrive at the door. Staff were also not very warm, and a little sketchy/ unprofessional. Then, loud club music and ambulances all around made even nice conditions very disconcerting. Will likely never stay here again.

Very disappointed. Got stranded with no lodging
The WORST booking experience I have ever had. I arrived late in the evening, and was told there was no existing reservation for me and there were no available rooms, despite the fact I had deposited money when booking for the stay. After trying to sort it out with customer service for over an hour, I was forced to book a gross, low quality motel on the outskirts of town on my own dime that night.

DO NOT STAY HERE
Do not stay here. Very rowdy part of town. Very loud music and cars. Something shady happing…someone had been in our room watch the football game and took shower. The elevator was super scary and run down. You can’t control the temperature of your own room. You have to call down and have them adjust it for you. This is a Big NO.
